Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Asteroidal at none against Drifty Asteroid's 8. Asteroidal also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 26.6). Drifty Asteroid's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 35 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
